Hey - any corrupt friend of Trump's is a friend to corruption. This guy is in deep too. Isn't there something swirling around in the DA's office of SDNY possibly concerning this $107 million inaugural committee money?




The inquiry was overseen by prosecutors in the public integrity section of United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. In an interview two years ago, a spokesman for Mr. Barrack said he had acted as an independent intermediary between Persian Gulf leaders and the Trump campaign and administration, not on behalf of foreign officials or entities.

The seven count indictment also accused Mr. Barrack of obstruction of justice and making multiple false statements during a June 20, 2019, interview with federal agents.

Mr. Barrack, 74, has been friends with Mr. Trump since the 1980s. He helped raise money for Mr. Trump’s first presidential campaign and ran his transition team after Mr. Trump won. But he was perhaps best known for leading Mr. Trump’s inaugural committee, which raised $107 million — the most money ever collected and spent to celebrate an inauguration.
 
In other news, a guy who once patronized one of Trump’s former casiono’s in Atlantic City once was arrested for a domestic violence incident
